Bulk Editing Products In The Control Panel

Categories
SKU
UPC/EAN
Default Price
Sale Price
Track Inventory (No tracking, Product level, or Variant level)

Free Shipping (on/off)

If your product has a variant these are the details that can be edited:

For products that have many bulk items, you will want to use the Bulk Edit. To find the Bulk Edit option

Go to Products
Click on View
Select the items you would like to edit
From the options drop-down menu click Bulk Edit
Click Confirm

Your editable items will be listed like this:

If you would like to view items with variants click the blue “+” icon.

To edit a cell simply click on it.

For variant details that are editable (like price and stock) but have not been defined, those cells will appear grayed out.
If not defined, the variant price will inherit the price of the base product and stock defaults to 0.
Some variant details (like category and brand) are not editable at the variant level, so they also appear grayed out.

You can also click and drag on the small square icon in the lower-left corner of the field to make changes in bulk to specific product variations. This is useful when you want to add sale prices to only specific products or product variants.

To undo any changes click Discard.

If you would like to commit to the changes click Save.
